Homeschool Coop

This week the host mama planned a play at the Y climber and a visit to the library. As soon as we got there Em ran off with her friend and cozied up with a book on the bean bag chair. Em was a little concerned that A can't read either she is definitely wanting to read more and more...she is starting to figure out there is a world she wants in on in these books! YAY unschooling rocks!

Our sweetheart Mal, this boy melts my heart with his baby blues!

Christmas painting

More sickies...

This is Em about 5 pm sleeping on the couch which NEVER happens! Too many 5:30 mornings and fighting off another bug. If you look close you can see Em is cuddled up with her cat Bear!

Christmas Tree 2012

Unfortunately we couldn't cut our own tree this year since there is too much snow according to Poppa! So thankfully we didn't sell the artificial tree like we had planned on.

And check out the paint color!

Renovations

Sorry I have been missing lately after a round of sickies we tackled the living room reno! Em was right in there working and painting like a pro! My after shots will be in the next post with the Christmas tree all set up! We worked hard (well hubby worked harder than the rest of us!) and completed this room in 3 days!

Wreck It Ralph

The City union puts on a family party at the theatre every year which is super special because we only go to the movies twice a year with this being one of those times and Em's birthday is the other time. This year it was Wreck It Ralph (I had very low expectations of this years film since last year was Happy Feet 2 and the worst movie I have had to suffer through in a very long time!) I was pleasantly surprised by how funny this movie was and Em sat fairly well through the whole thing. Then Santa visited and Em received a Littlest Pet Shop set which she immediately gathered the rest of her little pets to have a big party!

Glow Sticks

We have been fighting a lot of sickies around our house and staying in a lot with winter settled on us. So I pulled out the glow sticks for a bath one night! Em is so excited she barely paused for a pic before running up the stairs to jump in her bath.
